Neversleep

[Verse]
A shadow moves across the wall
It lingers there then starts to fall
A whisper breaks the silent hall
Was it ever here at all

[Chorus]
Nothing stays nothing holds
Time slips through our trembling folds
Impermanence is all we own
A fleeting spark a breath alone

[Verse 2]
The river bends it carves it takes
The mountain crumbles flake by flake
A mirror cracks a heart will ache
All that’s built the world will break

[Prechorus]
Hold it tight it slips away
Grasp it soft it still won’t stay

[Chorus]
Nothing stays nothing holds
Time slips through our trembling folds
Impermanence is all we own
A fleeting spark a breath alone

[Bridge]
The clock unwinds its ticking lies
The stars collapse they dim the skies
We build our castles high and grand
But waves will claim the shifting sand

Impermanence

Not A Love Song

a curse ties us down
to our broken ways 
forever hexed 
lost, drifting in a maze
(is it true?)

are we dead?
or are we just 
sleepwalking?
when night falls
the city calls
for us to walk 
(on the edge)

i don’t know if i can take
much more of this simulation 
i feel like it’s about to break 
into a worst situation

are we dead?
or are we just 
sleepwalking?
when night falls
the city calls
for us to walk 
(on the edge of nowhere,
on the edge of nowhere) 

are we dead?
or are we just 
sleepwalking?
when night falls
the city calls
for us to walk

forever hexed

“Devils at Play” is a chilling exploration of the mind of a psychopath, a character driven by manipulation, chaos, and the hunger to control. The song strips away the mask of charm and exposes the sinister games hiding underneath. With dark, cinematic imagery and unrelenting emotion, it paints the portrait of someone who thrives on destruction, pulling others into their twisted web. At its core, “Devils at Play” isn’t just about evil for its own sake, it’s about the terrifying allure of power without empathy, and the scars left on those caught in its path.

Product of Bad Decisions

Door slams shut — I still hear your name.

Walls are bare where our posters hung,
Every word still cuts my tongue.
Echoes drip from your old perfume,
Bedroom’s now a broken tomb.

I tell myself I’m fine tonight,
But your ghost still flickers in the light.

Look me in the eye, don’t disappear,
You tore me down, I’m drowning here.
Scars of my youth still burn and peel,
I’m screaming loud — you never feel.

Crowded halls and whispered lies,
Every glance just amplifies.
Crumbled notes still smell like pain,
Every line repeats your name.

I tell myself I’m fine tonight,
But every truth still cuts like knives.

Look me in the eye, don’t disappear,
You tore me down, I’m drowning here.
Scars of my youth still burn and peel,
I’m screaming loud — you never feel.

Saturday lights, flicker then fade,
Every song’s the mess we made.
Plastic dreams, cracked phones,
Now this house feels like a grave.

Call me bitter, call me fake,
All I give is all you take!
Paint my wounds, they shine in red,
Every color I loved is dead!

Look me in the eye, don’t disappear,
You tore me down, I’m drowning here.
Scars of my youth still burn and peel,
I’m screaming loud — you never feel.

You don’t feel…
You don’t feel…
You don’t feel…

Running From the Fire

Verse 1
The cracks above are showing through,
blue’s been bleeding into gray.
We tried to build a world from truth,
but it keeps slipping away.
I’m tired of pretending I’m fine,
just to keep the peace inside.
We’re all screaming under glass skies,
hoping someone hears the fight.

Pre-Chorus
Every headline feels like static,
every dream feels automatic.

Chorus
So I’m tearing down the walls again,
let the noise come rushing in.
If this is what it takes to feel,
then cut me open — make it real.
We’re the kids they left behind,
still learning how to heal in time.
Every scar a battle cry,
underneath these glass skies.

Verse 2
We used to talk about forever,
now we just survive the day.
Our heroes turned to shadows,
and our faith just fades away.
But somewhere in the wreckage,
I still feel a pulse beneath.
It’s fragile, it’s defiant —
but it still belongs to me.

Pre-Chorus
Every silence feels electric,
every truth a bit prophetic.

Chorus
So I’m tearing down the walls again,
let the noise come rushing in.
If this is what it takes to feel,
then cut me open — make it real.
We’re the kids they left behind,
still learning how to heal in time.
Every scar a battle cry,
underneath these glass skies.

Bridge / Breakdown
(clean verse opens → screams layer in)
Break me down, rebuild what’s left,
I’ve been waiting for my breath.
If the world won’t bend — then I’ll defy,
one last truth beneath the lie.

Final Chorus / Outro
So I’m tearing down the walls again,
let the storm come rushing in.
We’re not lost — just undefined,
still alive beneath the grind.
Every scar a reason why,
we survive these glass skies.

Tearing Down the Walls

Dying To Love

After Burn the Chains, ASHCOIL descends deeper into the system with “Welcome to the Machine.”
A dark and cinematic fusion of industrial rhythm and hard rock power, the song captures the struggle between man and mechanism — fire, steel, and defiance intertwined.
Grinding guitars, pounding drums, and haunting vocals echo through a world where freedom feels like an illusion, and the machine always wins.

Lyrics:

Welcome, my son…
Welcome to the machine.
It’s been waiting for you.

We built your dreams in factory lines,
We sold you peace for overtime.
You learned to smile on cue, my friend —
And now you start again.
We fed you comfort, trained your hands,
Taught you to serve and not to stand.
Now plug your heart into the stream —
Welcome to the machine.

Welcome to the machine —
Where nothing’s ever what it seems.
Feed the code, erase the dream,
Welcome to the machine.

You bought the lie, you paid the price,
You learned to live on borrowed time.
They gave you screens to light your mind,
But killed the spark inside.
Now all your hopes are factory-made,
A copy of a soul displayed.
You wear your chains like they’re divine —
And call it being fine.
Stand still… the system’s listening.

“Process initiated…”
“Feed. Obey. Continue.”
“Error detected — human input.”

Breathe in — exhale the code!
You are what we load!
Keep moving, don’t ask why —
The machine will never die!

Welcome to the machine —
Where nothing’s ever what it seems.
Feed the code, erase the dream,
Welcome to the machine.
Welcome to the machine —
Your freedom’s part of the routine.
You sold your soul to gasoline —
Welcome… to the machine.
Welcome to the machine.

You’ve always been here…
You just forgot to see.
Welcome… to the machine.

Welcome to the Machine

The entire sound is in my hands. I write cyber poetry, produce, and compose every track ready for Immersive 3D. Every beat is crafted for spatial and next-gen headphones.
Intimate lyrics, total immersion, every track.

For 30 years I kept unfinished demos to myself, never letting them out. Now I finish what I start and release it the moment it’s alive.

I use every tool available — human or machine — as an instrument.
Technology doesn’t replace creativity. It expands it.
